Just like to say I learned two things from that one piece of code.  The 
whole ?: thing which is neat but I'm not sure how much often I'll get a 
chance to use it and also matching a pattern multiple times with ( )* 
which should have been competely obvious in some previous reading but I 
hadn't seen it before. Learning two things from 18 characters of code is 
pretty cool.

Flash is to the Web what cheesy, on-hold-music
is to the telephone - superficial, and 
nothing but a distraction.
